It allows developers to write documentation in markdown format and automatically publish it to Notion, maintaining a single source of truth within the codebase while leveraging Notion's powerful features.
The tool emphasizes simplicity and integration with existing development workflows, eliminating the need for separate documentation management. Once content is published to Notion, users can take advantage of Notion's AI capabilities, robust search functionality, and flexible formatting options while having the option to keep documentation private or publish it as a public website.
